I have a 1983 truck and I'm having trouble deciding on what kind of lift to go with. I live in Louisiana, so rock crawling is not what we do down here. I will be using my truck 80% of the time on the road. This is my 5th toyota 4x4 I've had. My last truck was also a 83, I had 3" body lift along with 5" skyjacker suspension lift, 38 12-50 tsl super swampers. It was very stiff and really did not care for body lift. All my other trucks had 33" tires or smaller. So, to get to my questions. I would like to run the same tires ( 38 12-50) but would run 36 12-50 tsl's if I had to. I have been looking at All pro, Trail Gear, and of course Marlin. How much lift do I need, and some imfo on the products of the company 's listed. I've been reading alot about spring sag, I guess it has alot to do with what kind of wheeling you do, will these springs keep their lift with only ocassional off road use ( mud .) I would also like to know what kind of time and tools it takes for someone to install one of these kits. I've got a friend who turns wrenchs for a living and also likes 4x4's.but don't want to tie up a bunch of his time or shop. just wondering, hope someone can help with questions. thanks
